The body electric : a unique account of sex therapy for women / Anne Hooper.

"Six women meet. They have never met before. They come from different backgrounds, their emotional circumstances vary widely. All six are in search of an elusive goal - an orgasm. These women take part in a six-week course in which they discuss their sensual experiences, learn to express their fears and confront their relationships. Together they undertake 'erotic homework' and learn how to use massage, self-examination, fantasy, physical exercises and discussion to acquire a new authority over their bodies. Every practical aspect of sexuality comes into their training. The Body Electric is written for everyone in search of sexual self-help. For these six women are not alone. Despite the 'permissive' 'sixties and 'seventies, many women remain unhappily ignorant about their bodies. This book is for them - and for women at all stages of understanding who want to gain more sexuual self-assurance and pleasure."-- Back cover.
